Bias Analysis

Detected Bias Types

powershell_heavy
Summary
The documentation provides both Azure CLI and Azure PowerShell examples for verifying resources, but PowerShell is given equal prominence and detail, despite being primarily a Windows tool. There is no explicit mention of Linux-specific tools or shell environments, and the PowerShell section may imply Windows usage. The CLI examples are cross-platform, but the inclusion and parity of PowerShell examples can be seen as a subtle Windows bias.
Recommendations
  • Explicitly state that Azure CLI commands work on Linux, macOS, and Windows, and recommend CLI as the default cross-platform approach.
  • Add notes clarifying that PowerShell examples are primarily for Windows users, while CLI is preferred for Linux/macOS.
  • Consider providing Bash shell examples for Linux users, especially for scripting and automation.
  • If PowerShell is included, ensure that Linux/macOS users are aware of PowerShell Core's cross-platform availability, or provide installation guidance.
  • Review the order of examples: present Azure CLI first as the default, and PowerShell as an alternative for Windows users.
